Day 14 - prevarication is the thief of time

Got through another weekend (woo hoo) and a cool couple of days off now to recuperate. Actually it is a holiday here in Ghana on Tuesday but I have taken today as a "chill axing" day.  That should be all one word. I am not running around attacking people with machetes. Ah well, the wonders of auto correct.

But it isn't a wasted day, oh no, not at all.  I am off to South Africa in November with good friends and we are plotting a nice Operation Dinner Out in Cape Town (staying at the Commodore Hotel right near the Waterfront).  But to get there we are having a little detour to Simonstown to see the penguins, possibly a whale watching trip and, of course, some wine tasting/fine dining.

When we get to Cape Town I have a day to kill and so have booked myself on this:

How mad is that!  I have always wanted to see Great Whites and so have taken the plunge (or I will in November) and swim with them too - from the safely of a cage of course!)  Can't wait.

Then I am off to Pretoria for a few days for a conference.  After that, a couple of days to myself and I have booked into a lodge to do a horse safari and a walking with lions tour.

If I don't die on this trip, or get eaten, it won't be for the want of trying.

Oh and the prevarication: I should be studying for my Prince 2 course which is next week.

More anon
